When I'm touring, which is when I'd be packing, I'm riding solo. I have no use for a cushy seat, rear speakers, back rest. I just want a luggage box. Period. The real use I have for the passenger pillion is that it's a place to stow some accessible gear.

My bike is Denim Black -- a custom color. The Tour Pak comes in "flat black" ready to paint. I wonder if that's a match. I also wonder about going two-tone without getting too gaudy. You suppose red is just entirely over the top?

I suppose I could opt for the chrome rack on top, accessory light bar. But by the time we get set up, we're running into $1,500. (I have the four-point mount already.)

The Tour-Pak is slightly larger than the duffel I already use. AND, it locks up -- not that I ever take my eyes off the bike when I'm on the road in the first place.

I should have got one when I first bought the bike. I got one now and it's the best money spent for touring by far. More comfortable for my wife, myself and we can carry alot more as well. By the way, go ahead and put the rack on as well and buy a bag to use it with, we did this on a trip and again it was worth every pennie.

Let's pretend $$$ is not really much of an object?

If your LQQKING to0 buy a tour pack I would not buy H-D anything ! The H-D stuff is ABS both of these companys make theres out of a heavy fiberglass @ least check them out !

I bought a detachable tour pack for my FLHRI for the second tour after my wife started going on tours with me. Prior to that I had a rack and used a Kuryakan tour bag. The old set-up worked, but my wife wasn't comfortable. With the tour pack, her comfort has improved tremendously.

At first I pulled it off immediately after every tour. More and more now I find myself leaving it on for the convenience of the storage.

I have one of each - an '95 EGC and an '06 FLHX. The T/P on the Evo is great on long trips - plenty of room (almost too much?). If I only had the SG, I have to admit, I really wouldn't miss the T/P if riding solo. A large Tour-Master t-bag holds everything just as well plus it goes into the motel room anyway, no need for a lock.

Had one on the Honda, they are nice. Was considering one for the RK, but the $$$ always found its way somewhere else.
Anymore, I travel LITE...Lay out everything on the bed, take half the stuff and twice the $$$. The bag liners are maybe full with nothing I can't walk away from.
